All-optical spatial light modulator for reconfigurable silicon photonic circuits

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate all-optical wavefront shaping in integrated silicon-on-insulator photonic devices by modifying the spatial refractive index profile of the device employing ultraviolet pulsed laser excitation.
Journal ArticleDOI

An all-optical spatial light modulator for field-programmable silicon photonic circuits

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate all-optical wavefront shaping in integrated silicon-on-insulator photonic devices by modifying the spatial refractive index profile of the device employing ultraviolet pulsed laser excitation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ion Implantation in Silicon for Trimming the Operating Wavelength of Ring Resonators

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the design, modeling, and fabrication of ring resonators and their subsequent trimming using ion implantation of germanium into silicon, followed by either rapid thermal annealing or localized laser anealing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Silicon Photonics Rectangular Universal Interferometer

TL;DR: In this article, the implementation of a fixed rectangular universal interferometer using a reconfigurable hexagonal waveguide mesh circuit is described, and a suitable adaptation synthesis algorithm tailored to this mesh configuration is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dual-etch apodised grating couplers for efficient fibre-chip coupling near 1310 nm wavelength.

TL;DR: For the first time, the combination of dual-etch and apodization design approaches are demonstrated which may achieve a coupling efficiency of 85% (-0.7 dB) on fibre-chip grating couplers operating around 1310 nm.
